Re: Pro Tools Native 11th Anniversary!

The really exciting part for me was 24bit. I remember telling my clients, "We now have 16,000 times more fidelity than last year!" :p

The 001 for traded in for the 003 console + MPTK which was a...

Re: Best Recording Levels

Actually the equal loudness contours (fka Fletcher Munson curve) just keep getting flatter and flatter. Derek is quoting old audio wives tales probably out of Bob Katz.

:eek: I'd guess AVID stock is heading back down, but then again, Nashville isn't much of a music town. :cool:

Re: D-Verb is GOOD...Admit it!

They quietly changed it before the HD users found out the LE version was superior. :mad:

D verb was better before they added that obnoxious pitch shift.

Re: Pro Tools placing sound EARLY??

I thought I told all the DAW makers a couple years ago to appoint one of the QA leads as Timing Czar and require their signature for any customer shipment.

If you think that there is One Correct Level to work at for all signals, about half of audio engineering has past you by. :(

Re: Best Recording Levels

I think the take-home is that your better converters can easily handle nearly any dynamic range you send along whether that's -1dbFS peak or -40dbFS RMS. Certain converters also clip quite happily on...

Re: GarageTools is Born

What they absolutely need is a deal with Dell/HP/Lenovo/Gateway/etc. to bundle this onto consumer PC's as an answer to garageband. That is non-negotiable: this product will be a complete loss if they...

Re: GarageTools is Born

CPTK added continuous scrolling to LE, but it sucked.

Garagetools won't do much better than the baby Cubase unless they find a way to forcibly install it onto PCs like the real Garageband is...

Re: Does Motorola Own TDM???

Re: Does Motorola Own TDM???

Re: Mbox 3 Shipping!

Both units have spdif but only two channels; the 003 has ADAT as well giving another 8 channels at 44.1/48KHz; the Maudio 2626 has two ADATs which in an uncrippled DAW like Logic gives a total of 18...

Re: Mbox 3 Shipping!

003 has better specs on the line ins, worse on the preamps. But if you want the best sound you won't use interface preamps or converters (unless they're eg Prism Orpheus level). In which case you'll...

Re: Trying to set up a recording studio?

For starters, you'll need an HD6 in your A room along with an SSL 9K and a pair of 827's. A decent 150U of outboard and the usual EMT/480L/M6000 will do for the moment. One of the better...

Re: New Pro Tools Mbox Personal Recording Systems
